Since life in Wales is expensive one has to go here unfortunately really.

I recently visited this Asda for the first time on a very busy bank holiday weekend. Being a small…read moreshop (in comparison to other Asda's I've visited) it was packed out, with a queue just to get onto the car park. After a short wait a parking space became available and in I went. To be fair they have pretty much anything you can get in a larger store and I managed to get everything I needed. After another queue at the tills, not enough but no space for more, I made my way out of the car park which had if anything got even busier.

I guess this is a fairly typical Asda, but it is the only one in the area so I can only compare it…read morewith other supermarkets. The shop is quite new and so the building is still clean. There is a large car park and I have never struggled to park here. The shop is often busy and it can be difficult to get around amongst all the other shoppers. There are not very many check outs which results in some long queues. The staff at the tills are generally quite friendly and there are usually quite a lot of staff on the shop floor, though they are more likely to be talking to friends than helping customers. The prices are quite low compared with other local supermarkets, but this is reflected in the quality of the goods. There are a lot of non food goods, and recently a George clothing department has been opened.

Probably the best supermarket in Newtown. Still always packed out on a Saturday morning, whereas…read morethe other supermarket beginning with T is pretty empty. Always a good full selection of fruit & vegetables, salad & stuff. Laid out well, easy to get reach, easy labelling to check prices. Fantastic butchering services, if it's not out on the shelf they will do it for you. Boning a shoulder of lamb for instance, not a problem for them. Tesco don't do this. Good value deli, not a spectacular choice but good enough. Love the salad bar & fresh bread. Usually plenty of cashiers on, who will help you pack if you ask. Watch out for the AA/RAC reps on the way out. Just cover your ears and run past, mumbling "no thank you". My only gripe is the lack of price reduction on items that are approaching the sellby date. For example: Brisket joint £6, reduced by 30p to £5.70. Same joint at the end of the day now reduced by another 70p down to £5. Then it's chucked out. Come on Morrisons, it costs you money to have this stuff taken away. Just reduce those items more and they will shift off the shelf.

This shop made the national papers a while back when Kate Middleton was photographed pushing a…read moretrolley laden with royal groceries across the car park. It seems this is Kate and Will's supermarket of choice when they're in residence on Anglesey. You do wonder in fact if this shop was opened by royal request because I can't understand why Waitrose should open their only branch in North Wales (that I know of at least) on the outskirts of such a quiet backwater as Menai Bridge. I recently visited for the first time, I'd been working on Anglesey and was attracted by a offer I'd half heard on an advert I'd half watched. In the event I couldn't find what I was after, maybe the offer had expired or maybe I'd misheard the ad. It turns out Waitrose is a more expensive version of Sainsburys, not somewhere I'd go for the weekly shop even if I didn't live twenty miles away but possibly somewhere I'd go for the odd treat. On quibble is that the carpark is quite busy and clearly they've tried to maximise the number of cars it can accommodate by minimising the size of the parking bays. The result is very tight parking spaces which isn't convenient given the proportion of elderly drivers, who may not be agile enough to squeeze out of a half open door, and also the number of Chelsea tractors which struggle to squeeze in. Expect the odd dent in your door if you visit often.

According to the locals, this is a bigger store than the regular ones. If I get a chance to visit a regular store, I'll confirm, lol. This one does have 2 levels, and you can take the lift (elevator) or the escaltors escalators. The escalator going down wasn't working the times I've been, but just walk down anyway. They have cashiers for check out as well as self check-out lanes. Prices here are awesome! I'm a huge fan of their bakery bread and the snacks. Their sparkling water game is pretty strong, too. Don't be shocked if I check in here again, lol!

If you're around Liverpool, Tesco's of all versions are dotted around places: metro, local, express, superstore. If there are any more, you'll have to let me know! The Liverpool One branch of Superstore is not actually the most super I have come across in Liverpool as there is one in Litherland which is gargantuan in comparison. However, Liverpool One Tesco is certainly what the town needs. You still have plenty of choice here, a variety of sections such as deli, clothes and international foods to keep you adding more to your basket! I find this place more of a relaxing and enjoyable shopping experience as opposed to the Metro version by the big screen, because its more spacious and offers an abundance of products. The location isn't great if you're driving there as it'll cost you pounds to park somewhere nearby but certainly convenient when you have other chores to do around town.

So it was travel to home day. We have engagements we must honour and had we not we'd have stayed…read moreanother few weeks. So after a near 4 hour drive we called into a bright airy Morrisons supermarket in Holyhead 10 mins drive from the 'Irish' ferry to Dublin. It calls itself Irish Ferries but is crewed by an almost 100% non - Irish workforce, supplied by a 3rd party agency whose minimum wage lifestyles of a few quid an hour and a cut for the agency of course have helped make Eamon Rothwell and JB Mc Guckian inadequately taxed multi - millionaires. We shopped for fresh baked bread. I got a loaf with cheese baked in for £2 and a litre of fresh milk about a quid for breakfast in the morning but we also had in mind some food for our journey to avoid the overpriced muck that passes for food on the not at all Irish ferry. This slop gets to me every time. I mean why on Earth can't they just make tasty good food, with fresh ingredients. I couldn't imagine either Rothwell or JB allowing this rubbish into their mouths. I noted on board that a shallow bowl of minestrone soup, made from a packet, is €10. A factory made chicken curry and cheap white rice is near €20. If you served this stuff free in a prison you'd have a riot and the prisoners would likely join in. So we spotted a meal deal in Morrisons that gave us two oriental salads one chicken based and one sweet potato/bhaji based which were tasty spiced for factory made, two costa coffees, again much better than Mc Donald's and a snack from a range of chocolate bars thru packets of crisps. We got two complete meals with our coffees and snacks under a tenner or for less than the price of one serving of packet soup aboard.

I rarely see supermarket cages left on the shopfloor too, which is good as they can be a pain to navigate pass.

It has a wide selection of meals on the menu and is staffed by friendly and hard working individuals. I've had better meals here than I've had at some fancy restraunts and pubs! Highly recommended for the weekly/monthly food shopping exeprience.
